ABSTRACT
Unwanted facial hair growth is a common esthetic problem. Laser hair removal has emerged as a leading treatment option for long-term depilation. The theory of selective photothermolysis has revolutionized laser hair removal in that it is effective and safe, when operated by sufficiently trained and experienced professionals. Long-pulsed ruby (694 nm), long-pulsed alexandrite (755 nm), diode (800–980 nm), and long-pulsed Nd: YAG (1064) are commercially available laser devices for hair removal most widely studied. The authors wish to share the efficacy and safety of intense pulse light therapy for permanent facial hair reduction in Indian population.
